A San Mateo Tradition Since 1980

For over four decades, Lucetti's on 25th has been a gathering place for the San Mateo community. Tucked along West 25th Avenue, our trattoria brings the warmth and flavors of Tuscany to the Peninsula — with classic Italian dishes prepared the way they should be.

Step inside and you'll feel it right away: regulars greeted by name at the bar, warm bread served fresh to every table, and the kind of friendly, attentive service that turns first-time visitors into lifelong guests. We're proud to be the neighborhood spot where families celebrate, couples enjoy a quiet evening, and friends gather over a great meal.

With regular live music adding to the atmosphere, Lucetti's is more than a restaurant — it's a place that feels like home.

What Our Guests Say

As soon as we entered, I could tell it was a special place. There were regulars at the bar, many people were greeted by name when they entered, the place was packed and the servers were incredibly friendly and warm. Such a wonderful atmosphere. And the food? Absolutely delicious!

Karen Rosenthal★★★★★

I was stunned by the clam chowder, which was super creamy but somehow also light. The shellfish in the cioppino was cooked perfectly in a delicious broth. The chocolate lava cake was yet another unexpected surprise. The chef at this restaurant knows exactly what he's doing!

This chance find while strolling around the area became the highlight of our evening. Old School Italian vibe and atmosphere. Veal scallopini was done right. Espresso Martini was the Bomb!
